Your car is the one at Vorshlag, I assume? I don't remember seeing numbers posted after they got the engine and trans in place. I'd like to see the final weights if you have them.

How did they manage to scratch the cluster? Replacing the pump is entirely under the hood.

That's because the WRX subframe doesn't sit as low. The BRZ is the only Subaru that routes the exhaust over the subframe. Obviously you'd need a custom exhaust if you were attempting this engine swap.

When water gets on wires, it will follow the wire downhill, and unless you've used some silicone sealant, it will get through. I've seen it many times. Glad your issue was resolved. :thumbsup:
